Tennessee Eye Care - Lenoir City

I only give this establishment a two because I brought someone in to have cataract surgery. Apparently they do cataract surgery in the morning and then reevaluate/post off a couple of hours. We had to wait 5 hours in between the surgery and the reevaluation / post stop. We actually ended up about 6 hours in between. We do not live here. We live an hour and a half away. I could see waiting 2 to 3 hours which is the industry standard for the post stop. Not 6 hours. This is very inconvenient there's really nothing to do in Lenoir City for 6 hours. 😔😒😒

I feel compelled to express my experiences. I have been a patient for approximately 2 years. I had what I thought was urgent, seeing objects in my eye and burning red, stinging and itching. I called was seen that day. The doctor said it’s floaters, part of getting older. I asked how do they go away? He stated your Brain will take care of it! He also stated your vision has decreased. That’s all. I even went back after 2 weeks. I wasn’t better. I contacted another practice. Seen immediately. First question what do you put in your eye every day. Immediately the doctor said stop this we are trying this. I was prescribed steroids drops and stop other drops. I’m 100% better. I don’t understand why not one thing was offered to me for my misery with those 2 visits. Instead swept away. Needless to say, I’m sorry to say report my experience.

I went to Tennessee eyecare in Lenoir city to have my consultation with the surgeon before I do the cataract surgery and we had the pleasure of dealing with the nurse. Her name is Heather. She was very professional but hilarious. We had so much fun with her and just wanted to write a great review so when you go to Tennessee, eyecare asked for Heather to be your consulting nurse.

I can't say enough good things about this office and especially Dr. Lowrance. He was absolutely awesome and took time to explain everything to me in great detail. I called this office with an emergency on a Friday. They prepared me that I was eing worked in and they can't guarantee how long I will wait. Not only did they work me in, the receptionist called me back to move my appt up a couple hours. My wait was very minimal. WOW!! I am so impressed...highly recommend!!!

Why has Tennessee Eye Center stopped taking VSP Insurance? Is it a clinic decision or a VSP decision? I spoke with someone at the clinic and said they did not know if or when it would be reinstated. Unless I am missing it someone where, this is the only place I can ask this question since office staff can't give me the info. I have been with Dr. Montgomery for over 20 years and very satisfied since I have to go every 6 months. I don't want to change doctors or clinics. That's the only reason for one star.
